Also known as Phoenix customs. I also had my shocks shortened from 13" to 11 1/2" It's gonna affect the ride, but it's tolerable.

Thanks man!!

I have the progressive shocks in the rear.... 944's I THINK!!!! Whichever ones that Progressive advertises for the street glides.... 1" lower BUT has the extra travel.... I think those are the 944's.....

and a progressive kit in the front.... They lowered the front 1-1.25" I think.... SO, 1" in the front and 1" in the back works great for me!!! I'm 5'6" with a 30" inseam, and yeah, I'm happy....

--Edit-- I just read my signature lol I forget what all I've done... yeah, I think I got it right.
